Maybe with a 2-0 lead, they think they can afford to rest him.

I feel what you are saying but really. Hoping a player is too injured so the team can maybe get a win seems a little desperate. The Blazers can play better ball and with or without Udrih they can beat this team. Personally i would rather he played and the Blazers started playing well.

Did I say I hope he is too injured to play? Nope. All I said was that it is huge if he does miss the game. Which is true.

Sorry King i was not implying you hoped he was to injured to play but the statement did seem a little desperate wondering if maybe they would rest him? Like i said. This team is good enough to beat them with or without him. I know it and i bet you know it as well. A solid game all around will produce a win tonight.

I predicted a closer game tonight which usually means we'll blow them out..my blow out predictions haven't been getting results lately

I didn't wonder either. I said that if he missed, it would be huge just like if Aldridge missed, it would be huge for Memphis. I was just responding to the fact that the Grizzlies are saying he may not play. That's all. Didn't hope, didn't wonder. Just reacting to the situation.

I think it will be a close game.

The warp drive thread is in the OT section mags

Spoiler alert!

 

[TheMadHatter]

Yes. Sprained ankle.

He's playing. He came back in that same game he hurt himself in so he'll play today easily.


I have a really good feeling about the game today. It's a beautiful day outside the players will feed off that and of course the fans. I guarantee a victory..

 

[rasheedfan2005]

I heard he was bitten by a rabid dog with rose colored glasses and a cowboy hat..sounds serious. Forget if it was Quick or Canzano that broke the story

Id rep a dog like that

. Woohoo!!!

 

[rasheedfan2005]

I already have goosebumps from the future matthews chant. How fucking epic would it be if the whole team got together this summer and decided they have unfinshed business and all reisgn for fair deals.

It's up to LMA

 

[KingSpeed]

It's up to LMA

He's already said he will sign with us. He only waited til this summer so that he could make more money. That's exactly what he said. If he wanted to leave the Blazers, why would he be playing through injury this year?

I wish I was there!

 

[Strenuus]

I blame the festivities if we have a lackluster crowd.

Sitting at the very top of the 200 level.

A few ways that I know that the playoffs are special:

1. Padded seat tonight! 1st class seating on press row!

2. New and bigger replay monitors!

3. Super fast cable internet! (This one is really nice!)

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Smoke is starting to fill into the Moda from the rafters for the special pregame introductions.

 

[KingSpeed]

On ESPN, they just said Marc Gasol has been "brilliant" in the series. Not true at all. Just cuz they won the games doesn't mean they all played well.

I wanna see a win tonight, lets kick ass!

 

[Sinobas]

I have no expectations at this point. Would be nice to avoid getting swept, but it's pretty obvious the Blazers aren't going anywhere this year.

How is it obvious?

Look who the poster is. lol.

If we won it all, I have a feeling he'd say "Yeah, but there's 0 chance we repeat."
